Dark Knight's Corbould Not Guilty

A British jury Monday found Oscar-winning visual effects supervisor Chris Corbould not guilty in the 2007 death of cameraman Conway Wickliffe during the making of The Dark Knight.

Wickliffe died while filming a test run for an action scene in TDK when the vehicle he was riding in struck a tree. He suffered severe head injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Reuters reports: "Jurors at Guildford Crown Court took less than two hours to find special effects supervisor Christopher Corbould, 53, not guilty of failing to ensure his safety, the Press Association reported. Their decision was unanimous."

Corbould recently won the Academy Award for his visual effects work on Inception.
